The Australian Government has moved to fast track the visa applications of professionals who are most critical to the country’s economic development in 2009. And 17 construction and mining jobs categories feature in the all-important list.
Under the program, which will be operational from 01 January, 2009, the Government will fast track the processing of permanent migration visas where the skilled migrants are sponsored by an employer. However, people applying to come to Australia without a sponsor will be given priority if they have an occupation on the government's list of skills in critical shortage.
